Review Summary

Overall, reviews describe Zébulon as a standout all vegan patisserie with a wide, inventive range of desserts that many find delicious and beautifully presented, with frequent praise for cookies, croissants, tiramisu, and other treats, as well as strong gluten free options and a focus on quality ingredients. Many diners applaud the bright, spacious space, the open kitchen, and friendly staff, and note that the new larger location on Saint Denis offers more seating and a welcoming atmosphere. However, some reviews mention high prices and variability in service, occasional mislabeling or confusion about flavors, and a few critiques about pacing or heat when visits are near closing. Overall, Zébulon is seen as a highly regarded vegan bakery destination with creative offerings and a pleasant ambiance, but potential visitors should expect premium pricing and possible fluctuations in experience.

The BEST Bakery in Montreal! The dairy-free treats are AMAZING!
Love the fancy desserts, the warm chocolate chip cooks & the savoury breads. Everything is delicious, great vibes in the cafe & wonderful staff & owner.
I order cakes from here for all my parties & I'm always impressed with how delicious & decadent they are. 100% recommend this place to everyone.

The space is very large & spacious - it easily feels like it could seat more than 20 people comfortably.
When we visited, it wasn't crowded at all, which made it a great place for chatting, studying, or working.

The kitchen is open, so you can see the team preparing the cakes in the back, which adds a nice touch to the experience. The desserts are beautifully made, & pairing a cake with a coffee makes this a really pleasant spot to spend some time.

There's also a piano that you can play 👍

My favourite pâtisserie in Montreal :) I probably stop by here once a month. They have a good variety of baked goods & pastries, both sweet & savoury.

This fall I ordered my wedding cake & ~100 desserts for a sweets table from them. Planning & delivery was smooth & the guests really enjoyed the cake & desserts!

As you can see, the chef spends more time chasing customers out of his shop than doing business.
His focus is primarily on humiliating customers rather than providing a vegan cafe for Montrealers.
If he could focus on his baking skills or find a job that doesn't require him to interact with humans, the neighborhood would welcome a better bakery in its place.
Looking at his acerbic responses to many disappointed clients, it's no wonder there are never any customers inside, in a neighborhood where there are always lines in the bakeries-he has none. It looks like a vacant space.
On the day I passed by, there were samples on the counter. After trying a golden-colored financier, the lady behind the counter told me,'We do not have that cake today,' so they were giving samples of something that was not even available for purchase.
She said they only had the chocolate financier available. Just as I attempted to try that little, teeny, tiny sample, the chef set his beady eyes upon me & began loudly hissing with rage,'We only allow one sample!'
There are multiple reasons this is not a popular local cafe. To be so stingy as not to be able to part with a meager crumb of cake, & to go so far as to aggressively reprimand paying, adult customers over an insignificant sample that is sitting out collecting everybody's germs, says everything about this miserable establishment, where the samples are just for show.
I should have looked at the reviews-they are appalling. There is a disconnect when management laughs & condescends to the customers he is peddling to, for example, stating'You can't please everyone'. Indeed, you are trying to sell something, & pleasing them is part of owning a service industry business. As a business owner & a frequent bakery customer, having a brand is not about taking people's money; it is a two-way street.
If he were mature or wise, he would not spend so much time trying to'educate' the public, but rather educate himself, with some business courses, or just behavioral therapy. It would be fascinating for him to explain how a counter has a'customer side' & a'staff side.' As a designer, I myself have not heard this term before. Rather than deflecting from your own abuse by attacking paying clients & inventing stories of moms who stretch their arms over cash registers, try to accomplish more than paying rent, because this is not a legitimate business.

This place has the best vegan pastries I have ever tried. Not o lot is the place spacious, clean the customer service is attentive. The quality of each product exceeds the value, you leave thinking wow I just had the best pastry of my life. But above all the attention they give to their clients is warm & generous. I highly recommend their cookies & cakes, their drinks are delicious too! If you have a chance to visit don't miss it.

Superb dairy free pastry place! Was thrilled that their chef used his talent to also offer wonderfully-executed gluten free choices, for those of us that have to avoid both diary & gluten. When we went, the gluten free items included two different types of tiramisu (pistachio & sesame), chocolate mousse pecan cake, olive oil cake, & a passion fruit coconut cheesecake. The customer service was great. We ended up getting the pistachio tiramisu & chocolate mousse pecan cake, plus try the olive oil cake. All three were ace. I especially loved the mousse components that were less sweet (& you could taste the nutty & chocolate flavours) & the olive cake that was not overly sweet. We will be back often!

The staff was super polite & respectful, they explained to me one & each flavor every time I went. The cookies were okey, I was expecting more flavor in the chocolate, but I got more sugary taste. The mini cakes were excelente. Hope to get back some day🤗❤? Thank u for going vegan!!!!

Entremet chocolate cake (for 6 people) was a big disappointment.
Good: Interestingly not sweetened much (maybe even too little), & some interesting notes in flavor
Bad: Texture is not great, kind of crumbly, & way too much powder. Very expensive. Overall completely forgettable.

Update 2025: still absolutely fantastic treats. The yuzu hazelnut cookie & passion fruit cake were 10/10.

Like any good pastry shop, go early if you want the best selection. I was pleased & impressed with everything we bought - flaky croissant, rich chocolate & cherry bar, sweet nut tartelette.
